Ontario, Canada's most populous province and its economic engine, announced Monday a ban on US companies bidding on tens of billions of dollars worth of government contracts, and dumped a deal with Elon Musk's Starlink in a pushback to US tariffs.
"Ontario won't do business with people hellbent on destroying our economy," Ontario Premier Doug Ford said on X. "US-based businesses will now lose out on tens of billions of dollars in new revenues. They only have President Trump to blame."
US President Donald Trump said he had spoken Monday to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau about the punishing tariffs he has levied on Canada, adding that they would talk again later in the day.
"Just spoke to Justin Trudeau. Will be speaking to him again at 3:00 P.M," Trump said on his Truth Social network, while pushing his argument that the tariffs were about a "drug war" aimed at stopping the flow of fentanyl.
